My dog peed on my laptop, I think I might've left my laptop open or I think I might have overcharged my laptop for 4 days, please help

If it does not turn on after letting it dry for a while, the system is dead. Even a new motherboard may not help you as the liquid would have gotten into the case connections. Also urine is not water, it has a lot more chemicals that can damage electronics. If you have accident protection on it you can get it replaced, aside from that, it would be a loss.
